Bird On a Wire

Like a bird on a wire

Like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be freeLike a worm on a hook

Like a knight from an old fashioned book

I have saved all my ribbons for theeAnd if I have been so unkind

I hope that you just let it all go by

And if I have been so untrue

I hope that you know it was all to youLike a baby, stillborn

Like a beast with his horn

I've torn everyone who reached out for meBut I swear by this song

And all that I have done wrong

I'll make it all up to youDon't cry, don't cry, anymore

It's over now, baby, don't cry no more

Don't cry, don't cry anymore

It's over now, baby, don't cry no moreLike a bird on a wire

Like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free
